Green Unpleasant Land by Matt01344
8 parts Complete
Short Synopsis Green Unpleasant Land Fog shrouded Victorian London, but not the 1888 we'd recognise. There's a whiff of revolution in the air, not to mention lycanthropy in the shires. As Mr Eiffel's tower nears completion in Hyde Park, famed Egyptologist Sir Percy Tiverton returns with his latest find - a nameless book so mysterious not even the Royal College of Alchemists can decipher its runes. Alexander Faversham is England's foremost champion of derring-do, but his legend is built on sand. Loyal-to-a-fault manservant Bill might know more about his master's heroics than either are letting on. When the nameless book is stolen, Bill's entanglement threatens to bring his carefully constructed façade crashing down. There's something nasty lurking in the shadows and it wants its book back. Who would dare confront the tentacles slithering from the sewers? When the Empire needs a hero, it doesn't always get the one it expects. 80k words Gothic/Cosmic Horror/Alt History
